Audience Assistance

udemy

So I need some help from the audience.  I’m about to start work on offering online courses at Udemy that are laser targeted on specific topics.  

For instance, I’m going to create courses that are specifically devoted to teaching discipline, relationship, sibling fighting, etc so instead of 3 to 4 podcasts on the subject, delivered over 100 episodes, you can find everything you need in one class.  


What I need from you’ze guys is this: what do you want the first class to be over?  What would you want to learn about in a consolidated format?

I’m thinking the classes will remain free to PETAKers but will be fairly priced for those that are not members…yet….muahahahaha!  I digress….

 

Anyhow, let me know what you think by:

RFGP Mini Update

Jeff and I have had a heck of a last 2 weeks, and we need some time to get things squared away.  So we are taking one last week off of The Real Family Guys Podcast to recoup.

Jeff has been diligently putting together our show notes for a potty training episode and we will be airing that next week.  Thank you for your patience and we will see you guys…next week.

No RFGP Show Today

Jeff called me today and noted that his wife has broken one of her legs today, and sprained the other.  For lack of a more sophisticated way to put it, they’ve had a hell of a day.  So we made the executive decision to put our show off so we can have a better focus.

Feel free to peruse the archives and enjoy a past show and we will be back in the saddle next Friday.
